Binding Post Jumpers - New Product!!!

Let’s see, there are 8 bananas, so that is about US$12ea.
45X less is about US0.30ea.
Which Radio Shack bananas are you buying for 30 cents each?

If you have Radio Shack bananas already why wouldn’t you compare them yourself. If you want cheap why would you want KLE Innovations bananas. Why do you want others to follow your post? I guess that you must be enjoying the Radio Shack bananas?

Amazing, and I think that the KLE Innovations bananas sound amazing.

I like the build design as it as close to no connector as I have seen. Connectors degrade sound compared to bare wire hook up. That goes for binding posts and connectors. I usually bypass both!  Many aphile type posts and connectors are very heavy and thick not making for the best transfer. Many contain brass.  

These look promising in design. If you don’t like the plastic look then neatly heat shrink over it for a clean look.

@whitestix - after giving your posts more thought I think there are a couple of points that I feel I should address for other readers - so please do not think I am still trying to change your mind.

RE:...

I bought these connectors to pig back the wires from my sub to my 2-channel amp

I think that using the KLEI bananas to connect a sub to an amp via speaker cables may be "overkill" for the following reasons...

1. even if you have a pair of subs - bass frequencies are far less able to convey a sense of space/image which is one of the things these plugs excel at in the mid/upper frequencies.
   
2. I prefer to use the Line-in on a sub and not the speaker leads - in my mind this method of connection may have a negative effect on the dynamics these plugs are capable of conveying

You might have heard an improvement in the sound out of the actual speakers i.e. if you had connected them to your cables, but I think you would not have noticed a similar level of improvement from the sub’s

RE: -

The KLE connectors I bought were 45X the price of the price of the RS connectors

Like anything else in this hobby, "value" is subjective and very personal. The level of refinement these plugs bring to my sound system was well worth the cost for me.


FYI - I have tried Radio Shack plugs like those you posted, but on my system I prefer the KLEI Bananas

If the Radio Shack plugs do the job for you - that’s fantastic! You have a solution that works for you AND you saved a bundle - you can’t beat that.
